	XEmacs-21.4.2/etc/FTP.
	* build.el (build-with-MS): Use version.sh of directory we build
	in and customize build-report-version-file accordingly (without
	saving in order to stay out of build-report's way).
	* build.el (build-with-MS-make-commandline): Removed.
calc-1.16-pkg.tar.gz
====================
2001-05-12  Karl M. Hegbloom  <karlheg(a)hegbloom.net>

efs-1.25-pkg.tar.gz
===================
2001-05-17  Michael Sperber [Mr. Preprocessor] 
<sperber(a)informatik.uni-tuebingen.de>
	* RELEASE: 1.20pre1
2001-05-17  Michael Sperber [Mr. Preprocessor] 
<sperber(a)informatik.uni-tuebingen.de>
	* efs.el (efs-skip-msgs-alist): Create, generalizing
	`efs-skip-msgs'.  This hopefully will cure the gratuitous "EPSV
	not understood"	messages spewed out by some ftp clients.
	(efs-skip-cmd-msg-p): Create.
	(efs-cmd-ok-cmds-msgs-alist): Create, generalizing
	`efs-cmd-ok-cmds' and `efs-cmd-ok-msgs'.
	(efs-process-handle-line): Use above.
	(efs-send-cmd): Handle null directory to avoid arg count mismatch.
	(efs-good-msgs): Shorten "hash mark" regexp.
	(efs-hash-mark-msgs): Shorten "hash mark" regexp.
2001-05-06  Michael Sperber [Mr. Preprocessor] 
<sperber(a)informatik.uni-tuebingen.de>
	* efs.el (efs-write-region): Restore `buffer-modified-p' on all

2001-01-17  Edwin Steiner <edwinstein(a)hotmail.com>
	* efs.el (efs-quote-local-paths): Adds a customization variable
	`efs-quote-local-paths'. If it is non-nil, local path names in FTP
	commands are quoted (\ becomes \\ ...) by the new function
	`efs-quote-local-path.'  This is to support a ported version of a
	unix FTP client under Win98 which expects local path names to be
	quoted.
2000-10-15  Martin Buchholz <martin(a)xemacs.org>
	* *: spelling fixes.
2000-10-15  Michael Sperber [Mr. Preprocessor]

	an attempt to prevent spurious CWD's to non-directories.
2000-10-15  Katsumi Yamaoka <yamaoka(a)jpl.org>
	* efs.el (efs-ls): Preserve `temp' and `nlist' across
	continuation.
2000-07-16  Michael Sperber [Mr. Preprocessor] 
<sperber(a)informatik.uni-tuebingen.de>
	* efs.el (efs-ls): Proper `noerror' handling for CWD.
2000-07-12  Ben Wing  <ben(a)xemacs.org>
	* efs.el:
	* efs.el (efs-null-device): New.
	* efs.el (efs-tmp-name-template): Fix up problems with Cygwin
	FTP client and Windows native XEmacs.

	* mc-gpg.el (mc-gpg-lookup-key): Change key-regexp to tolerate
	extra fields at the end of lines emitted by --with-colons mode.
	Needed to handle new output format in gnupg-1.0.5, otherwise you
	get "No GPG secret key for xxx" errors.
xemacs-base-1.54-pkg.tar.gz
===========================
2001-05-13  Adrian Aichner  <adrian(a)xemacs.org>

	`compile-mouse-maybe-goto-error' to global value of
	`mouse-track-click-hook' to fix mouse-track-insert between
	buffers.
